  1. Doesn’t matter. Price is off the books now.
  2. Even if they had Margot, it doesn't get them +25 games in the standings and make the beat the Astros in the ALCS!
  3. The biggest negative DD had was the the signings AFTER 2018: Sale and Eovaldi and not figuring out how to re-sign Betts. That put the org into a tailspin IMO.
  4. Espinal Dubon
  5. It's working out in 2022. I can't speak to the Phillies farm stuff at all.
  6. Low Budget Plan or Mayer and Rafaela in 2024
  7. Judge doesn't have health concerns?
  8. Castellanos had a 94 wRC+ with only 13 HR's and an OPS under 700. In the playoffs, his OPS has been under 600. He has been horrible this season regardless of his glove. That's 5 years of a bad contract.
  9. It is true, Judge holds the AL record for most HR's hit.
  10. Yankees should dump Cashman, but keep Boone.
  11. You would have Rafaela still in the minors in 2024 or just as a backup?
  12. When you dig into Correa's numbers, you find that he's the opposite of Xander. Xander had a weird skewing of his numbers where he found all of his value in when he was shifting (+5 OAA). For Correa, his best defensive positioning is when he plays SS - straight up +1 OAA and he was worse when shifted. Correa's defense should improve in 2023 and Xander's should get worse.
  13. If they sign Correa, Raffy is gone.
  14. 2024 1B Casas 2B Story SS Mayer 3B Correa Seems like a pretty good infield?
  15. Of the 4 remaining teams, this was the preferred outcome I guess. SD just needs to trade Machado and I do like to root against teams that go all in at the deadline.
  16. When you start the year in AA, you are close enough to BOS that a slight shift in your game can get you the call. We'll see though.
  17. Yes, the chances are that he needs some major pitch recognition adjustments prior to getting to BOS.
  18. Uh? In Castellanos' age 30 season, he put up -0.7 fWAR. That contract could be bad.
  19. I'd say that even the rivalry with the Yankees doesn't really get me excited anymore. It's just more annoying to deal with Yankees fans than anything else. I will say that there have been recent smoke signals about bad feelings coming from writers that follow the Red Sox regarding the chance that Devers re-signs.
  20. The AFL is a hitters league, but Yorke needs a feather in his cap after his disastrous 2022.
  21. I think the "hit almost anything" starts to become obsolete as he faces advances pitching.
  22. They aren't going to "sign" any impact players this offseason as I don't believe any are out there that interest the Sox. Correa instead of Bogey?
  23. I mean, bringing back Beni doesn't solve all of the problems, but it upgrades them at one of their positions of needs. What's the problem. We can say "how does this make them MUCH better" but also say "how did they get so MUCH worse" than 2021. To me, if they can get a rotation that is likely to be more healthy, they'll find more success and have a better chance to be in contention down the stretch. Once there, it's just about being hot at the right time and making the right moves to fill in the gaps. In 2022, they were basically out of it when Hill and Wacha went out on IL. They started the year with Sale on the IL and the team initially struggled to find itself, but the team started to play well and looked like the season was making a turn, but the Wacha/Hill and later Eovaldi injuries really put the nail in it. Also, field a competitive bullpen.
  24. Um, Fred Flintstone lived in the Stone Age. The Honeymooners was a tv show that aired in the 1950's. The 1950's existed long after the Stone Age. Duh.
  25. Not according to our Bible (Fangraphs).
